Like many bird species, the Cape Parrot of Africa is in trouble. Deforestation, capture, and Psitaccine Beak and Feather disease are threatening the small population, consisting of about 1,500 birds.
Fortunately, people care. My friend, Susan Dobrowolsky, is partnering with the World Parrot Trust to raise money for scientists battling to conserve these birds. It's called Let's Help Save the Parrot of South Africa and it's on Facebook Causes. Not only can you donate money for this cause (every little bit makes a difference) but you can learn more about conservation efforts and the people behind it, as well as make, and chat with friends who also care about this amazing bird.
Thank you for caring. :)
